Overview: Ecological Research is the official English language journal of The Ecological Society of Japan launched in 1986. The journal publishes original research papers, reviews, technical reports, notes and comments, and data papers covering all aspects of ecology and ecological sciences.Aims and Scope: Ecological Research publishes original papers on all aspects of ecology, in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Manuscripts published in this journal must fundamentally advance and/or change our understanding of ecological principles. Purely descriptive papers and those merely confirming or extending results of previous work will not be considered. We publish original articles, current topics in ecology, special features, technical reports, notes and comments, data papers, and forum papers. The journal strongly recommends submitting the article type "Biodiversity in Asia" as a report of the biodiversity process or comprehensive inventory output in whole Asian regions. The acceptance criteria for all papers are quality and originality of research and its significance to our readership. Final acceptance or rejection rests with the Editorial Board. Of the papers published in each volume of Ecological Research, approximately five will be chosen by members of the Editorial Board as “Excellent Papers” every year.Keywords: Animal Sciences, Behavioral Sciences, Ecology, Evolutionary & Developmental Biology, Forestry, Plant SciencesSchlüsselwörter: Tierwissenschaften, Verhaltenswissenschaften, Ökologie, Evolutions- & Entwicklungsbiologie, Forstwirtschaft, Pflanzenwissenschaften
